FBI outlines reasons why six Southwest Airlines passengers were arrested and charged in Amarillo
Dallas Morning News ^ | 9/1/2015 | Terry Maxon

FBI special agent T. Scott Hendricks has filed an affidavit explaining why Southwest Airlines diverted a San Diego-Chicago flight to Amarillo late Monday and booted six passengers off the flight.

The six, said to be members of a San Diego area soccer team, were subsequently arrested and charged with “interference with a flight crew and abetting.”

Basically, according to Hendricks per Southwest, the passengers –Khalid Yohana, 19; Wasim Imad Shaker, 23; Essa Solaqa, 20; Ghazwan Assad Shaba, 21; Jonathan Khalid Petras, 20; and Saiman Hermez, 19– were refusing orders from the flight attendants, challenging their authority and being mean to other passengers.

Lawsuit by CAIR and multi-million dollar settlement to follow.

Didn’t know “soccer team” was English for al-qaeda.

I guess the airline did not get the memo that muslims are a privileged class.

I don’t care if you have a regular normal name or one that is an explosion of alphabet soup...being rich, famous, talented or “black privileged” does not let you act like an idiot. Sit down and shut the hell up while people are trying to fly a million dollar, umptity-thousand pound hunk of metal through the air in defiance of gravity with hundreds of lives aboard. Moron.

Jay Z got throw off a plane because some of his group wouldn’t behave and obey TSA and airline rules. These people just raised it to another level.

“The article does not say what happened to these 6 “Amish” passengers after they were booted off the Southwest flight in Amarillo.”

First line states FBI agent filed an affidavit. Thus they were arrested.

Another article:

“If convicted, each of the men faces up to 20 years in federal prison and up to a $250,000 fine”

The first sentence says the FBI agent filed affidavits.

“Didn’t know “soccer team” was English for al-qaeda.”

No mention of the ‘home’ of the soccer team in ANY of the four articles I read.

They demanded to be served alcohol, although four of them were underage.

Clearly these soccer-team members, probably all 7-11 franchise employees, were on a trial run...

If the FBI would just read the full text of the Iran nuclear-arming agreement, these men must be left to conduct their innocent training exercises...

They tried to order alcohol. Everyone knows good muslims don’t drink.

We need to start civil actions against people who delay flights or entire airports.

These asshats caused a 3 hour delay. I wold want either my bill rate ($300/hr) or the opportunity to smack them in the mouth.

Probably to female flight attendants, so they expected obedience.
